[PATCH] uuid: fix off-by-one

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Detected by Coverity.  Although unlikely, if we are ever started
with stdin closed, we could reach a situation where we open a
uuid file but then fail to close it, making that file the new
stdin for the rest of the process.

* src/util/uuid.c (getDMISystemUUID): Allow for stdin.
